5th I spent the day in Portland called upon Ezra Carter
& family we ascertained that Father Carter had been
in the day before to carry us out there but did not
find us & went home quite disappointed, therefore
Mrs Woodruff thought it best for her to go out to her
Fathers house to see her Aged father once more so
she took stage & went out & spent the night
with him He was quite out of health but got well
Almost immediately as soon as he saw her, He was 76
years of Age And A visit from his Daughter Phebe
was like one rose from the dead, we found all the
friends glad to see us
